Bound proteins were resolved by SDS-PAGE, immunoblotting, and made visible by staining with either anti-Dvl2 or anti-PP2A C-subunit antibodies. Dvl2 and PP2AC association is displayed as "fold" (time = 0, set to "1"). Representative blots are displayed. The results are shown as mean values ± S.E. from 5 independent experiments., F9 cells expressing Rfz1 were stimulated with purified Wnt3a for the indicated time. Cells were washed with PBS and lysed. Cell lysates were applied to a small Sephadex G-50 column to remove small molecular substances that interfere with the assay, and PP2A activity determined. Results were shown as the mean values ± S.E. from 8 independent experiments

    Calibration of NOMAD on ESA's ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter: Part 2 – The Limb, Nadir and Occultation (LNO) channel

    This is an open access article under the CC BY license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).The Nadir and Occultation for MArs Discovery (NOMAD) instrument is a 3-channel spectrometer suite on the ESA ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter. Since April 2018, when the nominal science mission began, it has been measuring the constituents of the Martian atmosphere. NOMAD contains three separate spectrometers, two of which operate in the infrared: the Solar Occultation (SO) channel makes only solar occultation observations, and therefore has the best resolving power (∼20,000) and a wider spectral region covering 2.2–4.3 ​μm. The Limb, Nadir and Occultation (LNO) channel covers the 2.2–3.8 ​μm spectral region and can operate in limb, nadir or solar occultation pointing modes. The Ultraviolet–VISible (UVIS) channel operates in the UV–visible region, from 200 to 650 ​nm, and can measure in limb, nadir or solar occultation modes like LNO. The LNO channel has a lower resolving power (∼10,000) than the SO channel, but is still typically an order of magnitude better than previous instruments orbiting Mars. The channel primarily operates in nadir-viewing mode, pointing directly down to the surface to measure the narrow atmospheric molecular absorption lines, clouds and surface features in the reflected sunlight. From the depth and position of the observed atmospheric absorption lines, the constituents of the Martian atmosphere and their column densities can be derived, leading to new insights into the processes that govern their distribution and transport. Surface properties can also be derived from nadir observations by observing the shape of the spectral continuum. Many calibration measurements were made prior to launch, on the voyage to Mars, and continue to be made in-flight during the science phase of the mission. This work, part 2, addresses the aspects of the LNO channel calibration that are not covered elsewhere, namely: the LNO ground calibration setup, the LNO occultation and nadir boresight pointing vectors, LNO detector characterisation and nadir/limb illumination pattern, instrument temperature effects, and finally the radiometric calibration of the LNO channel. An accompanying paper, part 1 (Thomas et al., 2021, this issue), addresses similar aspects for SO, the other infrared channel in NOMAD. A further accompanying paper (Cruz-Mermy et al., 2021, this issue) investigated the LNO radiometric calibration in more detail, approaching the work from a theoretical perspective. The two calibrations agree with each other to within 3%, validating each calibration method. © 2022 The Authors.
